"You little bitch, you want to be the wife of the number one scholar?" The mistress could no longer hold back and started cursing.
Bai Xinrui's eyes reddened again, and she said aggrievedly, "Mother, your words are too harsh. Do you really want to separate me and Yanlang because of your own selfish motives?"
"Don't forget, you are the mistress of the Bai family. You should put the interests of the Bai family first."
Bai Xinrui suddenly became tough. The mistress of the Bai family looked at her smug look and wanted to tear her face off.
The Bai family's mistress snorted coldly and mocked, "You do have a good appearance, but the results haven't been announced yet. How do you know that the scholar will pass? Don't you think too little of other students?"
Bai Xinrui said proudly, "Of course I know he can do it. He's the top candidate in this case."
The mistress of the Bai family was shocked and rolled her eyes.
He looked at Bai Xinrui carefully, thinking in his heart.
Could it be that this damn girl is really so powerful that she has found a good marriage for herself?
"How do I know if you're lying to me?"
The question from the mistress of the Bai family frightened Bai Xinrui so much that her heart instantly rose and she became uneasy.
"Mother, are you doubting me?"
Bai Xinrui took out a sachet from her bosom. There was an inkstone character on it. It was a little worn out and it was obviously a personal item that had been worn for a long time.
This was picked up by Bai Xinrui yesterday. Lianxin was also surprised when she saw this sachet.
Then he looked disappointed in his friend, saying that this girl was really too stupid.
He clearly had such a useful thing in his hand, but instead of going to see the young man directly, he had to ask her to knock on the door.
Wouldn’t it be better to just ask to return the sachet?
Lianxin was speechless and suddenly felt very tired.
The mistress of the Bai family's face completely sank. It seemed that this was true. Such private things were in her hands.
Is it really necessary to let this damn girl escape from her clutches and marry a talented young man with an honor and reputation?
etc.
The sadness in the eyes of the Bai family's mistress disappeared instantly, and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes.
Bai Xinrui was pleased, but Lianxin became alert.
The mistress's reactions were indeed very strange.
Just as the mistress of the Bai family was about to speak, Master Bai's voice came over: "Xinrui, is what the housekeeper said true?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the chubby Mr. Bai walked in.
The flesh on his face was almost piled together because of his smile.
"Dad, are you asking about Yanlang? It's true!" Bai Xinrui's eyes lit up instantly when she saw the person coming.
When Mr. Bai heard this, the smile on his face became even more fervent, and he rushed directly to Bai Xinrui.
"My dear daughter, you really didn't lie to your father. Did that young man also promise to marry you?" Master Bai stared at Bai Xinrui and asked.
Bai Xinrui felt a little guilty, but finally nodded.
"Yes, Daddy, you see, he gave me such a private thing as a token of love."
After a careful examination, Mr. Bai confirmed that this was indeed the sachet used by the man.
He laughed heartily and said yes repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Xueyan, you must prepare a good dowry for our daughter."
"Since that young man has already promised to marry Xinrui, when he passes the imperial examination, let him come and propose marriage."
"It will be of great benefit to our Bai family to decide on this son-in-law as soon as possible."
"There can't be any mistakes this time. Do you understand me?" Mr. Bai looked at the mistress of the Bai family and warned her.
Meng Xueyan's expression froze, and she finally sighed, "Yes, Master, don't worry. I've never been insecure in my work."
"Yeah." Mr. Bai patted Bai Xinrui's shoulder to express his satisfaction.
Then Mr. Bai left in a hurry again.
Meng Xueyan glared at Bai Xinrui resentfully, but Bai Xinrui became proud.
"Mother, please prepare my dowry well. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Having said that, Bai Xinrui took Lianxin away without waiting for Meng Xueyan to speak.
When they returned to their own courtyard, Bai Xinrui spun happily and shouted happily, "Lianxin, did you see her expression?"
"Hahaha, I'm so happy, really happy."
"See if she dares to bully me again in the future. I must become Yan Lang's wife, so that she will never dare to bully me again, and even have to live under my will."
“It makes me happy just thinking about it.”
Lian Xin waited for Bai Xinrui to finish speaking before speaking: "Miss, you have that young master's things in your hand, why didn't you tell me at the beginning?"
"Ah?" Bai Xinrui looked at Lianxin in confusion, then held the sachet in front of Lianxin.
"You're talking about this. I saw it dropped on the ground that night, so I picked it up."
"Miss, if you had told me earlier, I would have already spoken to that young man by now." Lian Xin sighed.
Bai Xinrui stared at the sachet blankly, and it took her a long time to react: "Yes, at that time we could have said that we wanted to return the sachet in person, and then the young master would definitely meet me."
"Then let's go again!" Bai Xinrui said happily.
Lian Xin quickly grabbed her and said, "My dear girl, could you please stop thinking about things so impulsively?"
"If you go now, aren't you afraid of being followed? Let's at least give the master some time and go tomorrow."
Bai Xinrui felt like her mind was spinning. "Why is this happening? Why should we give Dad time? Who would be following us? Mother?"
"What do you think? The master will definitely not listen to your one-sided statement. He will definitely send the butler to find out whether Mr. Qiu is the first in the case."
"As for the stalking, the mistress must have had some idea before, but was later warned by the master, so she restrained herself."
"But there's no guarantee that they won't do something bad in secret. You don't want Mr. Qiu to be snatched away by someone, do you?" The mistress has a niece whom she loves very much.
Listening to Lianxin's analysis, Bai Xinrui nodded continuously, feeling that she was absolutely right.
"You're right, Lianxin. Fortunately, I have you by my side. You are really smart." Bai Xinrui hugged Lianxin in a very good mood.
Lian Xin sighed and said, "Miss, you are tired today. Let me help you bathe first!"
"Okay, I'm really tired." Bai Xinrui immediately spoke in a sweet and coquettish voice.
Lianxin asked the little maid in the yard to bring hot water and help her take a bath.
In the mistress's courtyard, Meng Xueyan was so angry that she smashed several teacups. "Damn that little bitch! She was careless for a moment and let her meet such a person."
"Madam, you are now the mistress of the Bai family. The honor and disgrace of the Bai family are also your honor and disgrace. You have a brother and a sister, so you can't be confused."
"How could I not know?" Meng Xueyan was so angry because she knew this truth.
Don't even think about controlling it now. I'm afraid that I won't have a good life in the future because I have to act according to the mood of that little bitch.
How could Meng Xueyan, who was used to being domineering, tolerate this?
The maid beside Meng Xueyan quickly tried to comfort her softly, "Madam, please don't worry, even if this little girl really gets married."
"She's also someone else's bride, how can she come back to take care of her parents' affairs?"
"Besides, it's still unclear whether this can be accomplished." The old woman's words made Meng Xueyan's eyes light up.
